This 2009 Ford has 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 28,859 miles. The mileage trajectory is consistent, but the underlying mechanical issues are a significant red flag.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,777 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the vehicle has accumulated significant mileage over its 17-year lifespan.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS tyre defect on 2023-02-17 indicates critical safety neglect.
- Engine/Oil and Suspension advisories are recurring across multiple tests, showing systemic neglect.
- Major Engine MIL failure on 2024-02-17 points to unresolved engine issues.
- Major Headlamp aim failure on 2025-02-17, escalating from PRS to MAJOR, signals poor maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 7,777 miles/year, indicating regular use.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT records.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2027-02-17, providing immediate peace of mind.
